    It blows my mind that it’s about to be September 2025 and there are still people that deny the effect that longer tracklists have on streaming numbers or that artists are purposefully releasing longer projects to boost streaming stats.

    We’re literally seeing it play out in real time. When was the last time a major artist dropped THREE projects IN A ROW that were all 30+ songs in length?

    What does Morgan Wallen have to say that requires three separate albums that have an average runtime of 107 minutes a piece?

    I said he wasn’t botting to the extent that Drake fans think. They think that ONLY Kendrick Lamar uses bots and that all of the Not Like Us/GNX success was fake bot activity. That is untrue.

    Every major artist uses bots to some capacity, that includes Kendrick

    Why are you stuck in the past? Nobody listens to DS4EVER anymore, that s*** came and went

  • Aug 31, 2025

    None of you know anyone that has played a DS4EVER song in the past 6 months. The Gunna obsession on here after it beat Dawn FM has always been weird

    I'm confused. What argument are Weeknd fans trying to make here. The same people that have been denying that botting is prevalent on spotify now believe it? I think Gunna and Weeknd are botters. Dawn FM underperfomed sales wise. Nothing will change that

    Nobody ever denied that botting existed on Spotify. You sound crazy.

    We spend hours in here arguing about these numbers every day and all of these artists are using bots. The only ones that look stupid is us

    If you’re in here seriously discussing sales you already lost.

    This thread is for trolling the mfs that actually take this s*** to hard and crunch the numbers.

    Just yesterday I saw someone in here writing paragraphs about Maga Wallen having classics and he doesn’t even listen to bro
